Midtown Tunnel Vision Lyrics

Rainbow

Take good care its a tightrope ride
Neon city is on the dreamers side
Prime time losers going underground
They take you up and they shake you down
Cant see nowhere
Dont know, and I dont care
cos here comes another midtown tunnel vision
Sidewalk cruiser in stiletto heels
Frozen heart, eyes of steel
Wrap your body around my soul
Electric love is gonna take its toll
Cant see nowhere
Dont know and I just dont care
That girl is the mother of my midtown tunnel vision
Sunset skyline night turns to day
Down on the street you could fade away
No second chances in this here wasted life
Itll cut you down like a switchblade knife
Cant see nowhere
Dont know and I just dont care
